How big is your family? How many members do you have in your family? Include pets also!

Oy vey.

2 adults, 1 child (9).

2 dogs, both rescued greyhounds. The data for one is here. (http://www.greyhound-data.com/d?d=Solas+Spritzer&***=&color=&birthyear=&birthland=)

8 cats, and two recently deceased in a box on the shelf, so 10 if you count the ones that have passed away but are still in the house. :love:

1 90 gallon aquarium with 9 fancy goldfish
1 125 gallon aquarium with 3 1 ft. Pangasius Catfish, a few danios and glassfish and tetras that are too fast to be eaten by the cats, an upside down catfish that we see once every three months.

A family of frogs in the backyard beneath the hot tub.

I think that's it.

You wouldn't talk to your sister? Oh y not? Siblings are there only to fight and get back. She'll love you more than anything in this world.

What does that mean draknet?

"belly up" is a euphemism for "dead", usually pertaining to fish (who tend to go "belly up" when they die as they float to the top because the gasses in their belly tend to be more buoyant than the rest of their bodies).

I.e., my goldfish died yesterday morning. Well, one of them.
